I love our militantly queer speedrunning comrades. The only good gamers.

I introduced my partner to AGDQ last week and she commented on how nice it was they had people's pronouns on screen. Decided not to comment about how GDQ has pretty much always been neuro-atypical and trans folk long as I can remember
Where can I get the massive Hades Cerberus plush?
I think it was one of a kind.
Remember when GDQ was about speedrunning games?
Shows a photo of someone speedrunning a game at GDQ.
A sport that requires you to be a shutin to be good has a high population of people that are fringe and often shut themselves away from society? Shocker!
Why is this trans person playing Hades, a series notorious for its lack of LGBT representation?
Speedrunning seems to be the only niche of Hardcore Gaming where it seems most people are pretty cool.
i watch every year, at least having it on in the background for noise and yeah, its always been a bunch of queer people. its great
I was thinking about why so many in the radical left participate in "speedrunning"
alternative sexual archetypes (fastest mario)
Nice to see one of my favorite Civ youtubers is chill.
When I was closing the link I was like "wait was Potato the one who tweeted that?" But he's on the QT
"I've become so radicalised against fascism in the last few days I'm a queer interdimensional feminist black nationalist communist and I'm considering the phrase "Lenin did nothing wrong"" - https://x.com/PotatoMcWhiskey/status/2010129709149872544
lol my vibes radar stays spot on, also lenin was a paragon of a person no one should be ashamed of praising him in public. I like making the analogy with the dark knight movies where batman (stalin) gets all the bad rep to absolve harvey (lenin) fall of grace, except lenin never went bad like harvey.
would Burgerlanders get it though if there's no burgers in the analogy?
Potato MW go on Hexbear
Yeah I was worried cause they have such great civ videos
I haven't watched gdq since like what 2013-2014 and even back then it was trans and autistic people.
That Cerebrus doll is very cute
